The early psychological literature pertaining to Mexican-Americans in the Rocky Mountain region is summarized. This literature, which concentrates on the mental testing of children, contains racist interpretations by some investigators of this early period. George I. Sanchez, a psychologist of Mexican ancestry who contributed to this literature, along with other writers, offered constructive suggestions for the psychological assessment of Mexican-American children, but even though these recommendations were made more than sixty years ago many of them are still often ignored.
